2402

"It explains why I have never gotten the tweeters to sound right either."

Probably not, the 2402 is not a very good tweeter, 5dB down at 15Khz, 10dB down at 20Khz.

Most of these rubbed from the factory, and have nasty peaks (not shown on the graphs). On the JBL production line they were tested against a standard, as long as the output was higher than the standard they were acceptable. A consecutive pair might have ±5dB (10dB difference) in the 5Khz~10Khz region. I have been able to shim these and make them much smoother (at a loss of some efficiency), but they have no real high end.

The 2404, 2405 are much better, but still benefit from shimming.

Take a look at this nice little Celestion driver:
